Why Kong Would Likely Lose to Ghidorah in a MonsterVerse Showdown

In the MonsterVerse, most fights between Titans and kaiju often favor the larger and more technologically advanced opponents. While Kong managed to give Godzilla a tough fight, the same cannot be said for a confrontation with Ghidorah, a far more powerful and dangerous creature. Let's delve into why Kong would likely lose in such a hypothetical battle.

Factors Affecting the Outcomes

Kong’s fight with Godzilla, despite some impressive feats like throwing the grown-up Godzilla into the ground, ultimately favored the powerful dinosaur due to several key factors:

Power behind blows: Despite being strong, Kong’s punches are not enough to defeat fully evolved Godzilla. Even when combined with the latter’s half-evolved state and sand in his eyes, Kong’s strength is not sufficient to hurt an evolved Godzilla. Snake-like necks: Ghidorah’s three prehensile snake-like necks are much more formidable than Godzilla’s single neck. They can wrap around opponents and potentially choke them, making Kong’s attacks less effective. Access to different abilities: Ghidorah, being an alien, has abilities that are not related to Earth-based energy. His Gravity Beams and Lightning Beam pose significant threats to Kong, who has neither the defenses nor the offensive capabilities to counter them effectively.

Ghidorah's Superiority

While Godzilla is already an incredibly formidable kaiju, Ghidorah surpasses even him in terms of raw power and size. Here’s why Ghidorah would be a much stronger opponent for Kong:

Thermonuclear and high-energy attacks: Ghidorah's attacks are on an entirely different scale. His mega-thermonuclear pulse is described as being as hot as a dying star, which is a staggering 1 billion degrees Celsius. Considering that Godzilla's atomic breath is around 900,000 degrees Celsius, Ghidorah's attacks are over 1,000 times more powerful than Kong. Size and technological prowess: Ghidorah being twice the size of Kong and having flight capabilities gives him a significant advantage. His ability to fly means he can maneuver around Kong, making it even more difficult for Kong to land a hit. Durability: Ghidorah has already demonstrated his resilience by surviving Godzilla's strongest attacks in the MonsterVerse. This indicates that Kong would face significant challenges in trying to bring him down.

Conclusion

Kong’s abilities, while impressive, are not enough to compete with Ghidorah in a full-scale battle. While Kong could take some bites out of one of Ghidorah's heads or attempt to cut them with his charged battle axe, these actions are mere scratches on a much larger and more powerful opponent. Therefore, in a hypothetical showdown in the MonsterVerse, Ghidorah would almost certainly emerge victorious over Kong.
